I'm confused

Why didn't Bob just post this himself? Did he get banned again?

Yes. Once he started deleting his old posts, and messing up countless threads I made it where he couldn't do that anymore. Just as I have in the past and will do again. Except instead of banning him as the others were in the past, I made a new user group, just for him, where he couldn't edit (delete) his posts but still post. In doing so it accidentally put him into a post "moderation" queue, which wasn't meant to be done but it was. So he posted but it didn't get posted. Then he went berserk in an email to me and another member with what was posted. I decided I had had enough so now he is gone. It just doesn't show him banned but his user group has no access to the board. I had no dog in any of his fights and he seems kind of angry, in general, to me. That is the story.....I never wanted any of his crap but when I awake to emails, from good members, about how disgusting of a post he did.....it wasn't a fun morning to start with. The whole Nicklaus card debacle should have never been made public. It was a private matter, no one accused him of stealing a card, and he again got all dramatic about it. But this is about as much writing and wasting time on him as I want to do. He is better off somewhere else, imo.

Thanks for the clarification, Leon. I thought that was the case, but I didn't see "Banned" under his username as before.

I'm not sure why one would delete their posts?

The only reason I can think of is if they had something to hide?

There is a post war thread where Bob and Peter S were having a...debate. Now it just looks like Peter is shouting out to whoever might be listening

Another member years ago was going back and deleting all of his posts too, and really for no good reason, they were not controversial, they were informational posts. The archives of this group are invaluable and should not be tampered with.

I 100% agree with this.^^^ It is the reason I asked Bob why he was deleting his posts. He had some great information on high end fake slabs and cards. I collect at the opposite end of the spectrum but like to learn as much as possible on detecting fraud in our hobby. I wish him well and happy collecting.

Go to the Babe Ruth glove discussion. Goldin was auctioning a glove they 'claimed' was used by Ruth in school. One or two of the members were very vocal in stating that it was not the glove. Some of their posts were deleted supposedly after a cease and desist from some 'ahem' attorneys. I stated is was not the same glove as shown in the photos and never heard squat.

Not to take the attention away from Jesse's and Bob's moment but there was at least one C & D letter sent to someone who removed their posts. I saw the letter he was sent and even posted the email which introduced that letter. I too bashed Goldin on that thread and was never contacted but I chalk that up to my not posting anything as damning as the content the other two people to whom you refer.

+1 big time.....I'm with you David and absolutely totally confused ... Has he been reinstated or not? I thought he had been. I tried to read Jesse's post, but I could have read War and Peace quicker.....

Cliff's Notes version- Bob is gone

Bob's autographed HOF rookie collection is out of this world.

To keep this thread sorta on topic, I thought I'd share a card I look at every time another member is banned...a little Ralph Macchio (aka Karate kid) action - HAI-YA:

I didn't get to see any of it .

It was in this thread...silly to have been edited / deleted by Bob before being banned. Kills his credibility and likability. Oh well.
